Contributing to Apache Maven
======================

You have found a bug or you have an idea for a cool new feature? Contributing
code is a great way to give something back to the open source community. Before
you dig right into the code, there are a few guidelines that we need
contributors to follow so that we can have a chance of keeping on top of
things.

        // If the build section is present and the project directory is non-null, we should make
        // sure interpolation of the directories below uses translated paths.
        // Afterward, we'll double back and translate any paths that weren't covered during interpolation via the
        // code below...
        translatedPrefixes.add("build.directory");
        translatedPrefixes.add("build.outputDirectory");

         * ended up with a magic value that is not compatible with the type of the configured mojo parameter (a string
         * could still be converted by the configurator so we leave those alone). If so, back off to evaluating the
         * expression from properties only.

                    // version skew drop back to resolution from the repository
                    return null;
                }
